# group definitions

You can group repos or users for convenience.  The syntax is the same for both
and does not distinguish; until you *use* the group name it could really be
either.

Here's an example:

    @developers     =   dilbert alice wally

Group definitions accumulate; this is the same as the above:

    @developers     =   dilbert
    @developers     =   alice
    @developers     =   wally

You can use one group in another group definition; the values will be expanded
right there (meaning later additions will not appear in the second group).

    @developers     =   dilbert alice
    @interns        =   ashok
    @staff          =   @interns @developers
    @developers     =   wally

    # wally is NOT part of @staff

## special group `@all`

`@all` is a special group name that is often convenient to use if you really
mean "all repos" or "all users".
